So in this world of rising streaming costs and license holders unilaterally deciding to pull content from streaming channels I figured I'd compile a few guides for people who want to cut those cords. As a rhetorical exorcise I'm going to list out some guides on how someone might want to create their own local media streaming service and how to automate management and supply of content to it. ALL RHETORICAL
I'm not going to explain how to build a media server, people who go that extensive won't need these guides, but if you have the cash, and don't want to build your own server you can always buy a higher end NAS from synology or QNAP that runs docker engine and you should be good.
Please make sure to follow the instructions for each individual guide in order depending on your choices. RHETORICALLY.
First you install Docker:
https://www.virtualizationhowto.com/2023/02/docker-compose-synology-nas-install-and-configuration/
Then you install your download clients:
Newsgroups (you'll also need an account with a hosting service like Newshosting or Giganews as well as access to an indexer): https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/2021/07/30/setting-up-nzbget-in-docker-on-a-synology-nas/
Torrents (with this you'll need access to either public or private trackers): https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/2021/09/13/deluge-in-docker-on-a-synology-nas/
Then you install Jackett (this'll auto-manage all of your torrent trackers and create feeds for Sonarr and Radarr):
https://www.smarthomebeginner.com/install-jackett-using-docker/
Then you install Sonarr:
https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/2021/05/03/setting-up-sonarr-in-docker-on-a-synology-nas/
Then you install Radarr:
https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/2021/07/30/setting-up-radarr-in-docker-on-a-synology-nas/
Then you install Plex or Jellyfin:
Plex: https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/2021/12/06/plex-in-docker-on-a-synology-nas/
Jellyfin: https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/2022/09/03/jellyfin-in-docker-on-a-synology-nas-no-hardware-transcoding/
Then you install Overseerr or Jellyseerr:
Overseerr: https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/2022/03/19/overseerr-in-docker-on-a-synology-nas/
Jellyseerr (only use if you picked Jellyfin): https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/2022/09/04/jellyseerr-in-docker-on-a-synology-nas/

nas: Synology Disk Not supported by this version of DSM
Argh, what a pain, I had thought I could just swap disks to different Synology machines, but it turns out my software on my flavors of Synology NAS (RP2423+, DS2413+ and DS1811) are all different enough that none of the SHR drives are compatible. And I get the dreaded. These each run different versions of the DiskStation Manager, DSM 7.1.1 and DSM 6.2.4 respectively
Disk Not supported by this…

tech: Synology NAS performance is 200 MBps and 500/700 IOPS good?
OK, now that we have our disk arrays in order, I was curious to see what performance is like. First some basics, with hard disks, performance is a little hard to understand. The short answer is that two things are going on, The first is, that you have the data under the disk head and you are blazing away reading it, how fast can it go? So when I’m using my disks, I’m seeing speeds on the order of…
